You remember this ad by Ronald Reagan. 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: I always love to say, what would Ronald Reagan say? Listen, 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: it's morning again in America. Today, more men and women 9 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: will go to work than ever before in our country's history. 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: With interest rates said about half the record highs of 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty, nearly two thousand families today will buy new 12 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: homes more than at any time in the past four years. 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 1: This afternoon, sixty five hundred young men and women will 14 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: be married, and with inflation at less than half of 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: what it was just four years ago, they can look 16 00:00:53,600 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: forward with confidence to the future. It's morning again in America, 17 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: and under the leadership of President Radia, our country is 18 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: probably and stronger and better. Why would we ever want 19 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 1: to return to where we were less than four short 20 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: years ago. Well, that was mourning in America. There's a 21 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: different kind of mourning where morning America's decline. I mean 22 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: watching President She and Vladimir Putin and seeing Saudi Arabia 23 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: now align with Iran, and watching this new ass axis 24 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: of evil emerge between China and Russia and Iran and 25 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: North Korea, and it looks like Saudi's have been won 26 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: over into this coalition as well. You know, when Donald 27 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: Trump left office, he pulled off something I never thought 28 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: i'd see in my lifetime, and that was a coalition, 29 00:01:55,120 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: an alliance between the US Israel, the Jordanians, the Egypians, 30 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: the Emirates, the Saudias, all you know, aligned against Iranian 31 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: hegemony in the Middle East that has now been broken 32 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: as President Sushi now seeing a weak, frail cognitive mess 33 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: as a president, is now taking full advantage. Anyway, the 34 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: reason I bring all of this up is Dave McCormick, 35 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: who himself has an incredible background. He's a former head 36 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: of Bridgewater but economically can talk about it, but he 37 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: just wrote a new book, Superpower. He pulled off something 38 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: I never thought I'd see in my lifetime, and that 39 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: was a coalition, an alliance between the US, Israel, the Jordanians, 40 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: the Egyptians, the Emirates, the Saudias, all you know, aligned 41 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: against Iranian hegemony in the Middle East that has now 42 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: been broken. As President Sushi now seeing a weak, frail 43 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: cognitive mess as a president is now taking full advantage. Anyway, 44 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: the reason I bring all of this up is Dave Cormick, 45 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: who himself has an incredible background. He's a former head 46 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: of Bridgewater but economically can talk about it. But he 47 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: just wrote a new book, Superpower in Peril, A Battle 48 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: Plan to Renew America. You know, if it was morning 49 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: in America, it's a nightmare in America today. Sixty percent 50 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 1: of American families now living paycheck to paycheck. Yeah, people 51 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: tapping into their pensions, you know, just to make ends meet, 52 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: and they're taking heavy, heavy, you know, financial tolls as 53 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: a result, and massive penalties associated with that. Other people 54 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: they're using credit cards just to make ends meet for 55 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: batter necessities. It's tough out there and on every front. Anyway. 56 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: Dave was a candidate for Senate in Pennsylvania. I think 57 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: the odds might be high that he's running again. I'll 58 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: ask him in a second, he joins us. Now, by 59 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: the way, he can get his book, Superpower in Peril, 60 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: A Battle Plan to Renew America on Hannity dot com, 61 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: Amazon dot com, bookstores everywhere. David, how are you, sir? 62 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: Hey Sean, thanks so much for having me. I really 63 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Well, the first thing I got to ask 64 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: you is obviously about this uh pending so we hear 65 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: or we don't know prosecution h Donald Trump. UM, I 66 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: know you work for a big company. Uh, let's take 67 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: your company out of it. How common are non disclosure agreements? 68 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: How common are does that happen? In other words, it's 69 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: something that's viewed as a nuisance, you know, lawsuit that 70 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 1: they want to go away, or a threat that quote, 71 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna smear you, slander you, smirch you 72 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: if you don't pay us X number of dollars and 73 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: a cost benefit analysis is made by the accounting company, 74 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: by the accounting department and they say, you know what, 75 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: just pay it is you're gonna save a lot of 76 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: money if you pay it. How often does that happen? Oh? Yeah, 77 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, They're very very common in industry today. There's 78 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: there's no doubt. And you know it's uh when you 79 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: watch this situation, like I don't know the ins and 80 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: out of this particular case of President Trump. But the 81 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: thing I would say is whenever it looks like our 82 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: system is being hijacked and highly politicized, people lose trust, 83 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: whether it's the present nine stage for somebody else. And 84 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: so I think for that reason there's a lot of 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: concern that this is just evidence of a highly politicized process. Well, 86 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: and I think, what do you agree with Elon Musk 87 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: that this might have, you know, just the opposite effect 88 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: that people after watching you know, three and a half 89 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: years of lies about Trump Russia collusion, all of it debunked, 90 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: every bit of it. When people see that Hillary Clinton 91 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: top secret classified information on our servers, destroying thirty three 92 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: thousand emails with bleach bit, destroying devices with hammers, then 93 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: of course she pays for her dirty Russia misinformation dossier. 94 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: The FBI can't verify it, but they use it for 95 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: four five applications, in part to have a backdoor to 96 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: aspire on Trump. They get away with it. You know, 97 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, they've they've had his laptop since December twenty nineteen. 98 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: Nothing's happened with him. Do you think people now rightly 99 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: or a questioning whether or not we have a dual 100 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: justice system? Oh? Yeah, absolutely, and I think in general, 101 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: what I try to highlight the superpower and peril is 102 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: that you know, increasingly the elites and the decision makers 103 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: in America have lost touch with what everyday Americans are 104 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: feeling inside and out me anger and President Trump did 105 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: a great job of tapping into that in twenty sixteen. 106 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: And what this book tries to do is lay out 107 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: an agenda. America's in decline, but declines not inevitable. Now 108 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: there is renewal. It depends on what we do. And 109 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: this is the what we Do book in terms of 110 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: laying out the policies. But what I say in here 111 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: it's exactly what you're describing, which is we need to 112 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: bring back trust to our institutions because they've been hijacked 113 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: and there's kind of a progressive ideology that's taking our 114 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: institutions in our country in a very dangerous direction. And 115 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: this is all just part of that broader landscape where 116 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: we need to bring back conservative leadership in the White 117 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: House is also in the Senate and the House. I've 118 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: been talking a lot about how Democrats are running campaigns 119 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: versus how Republicans are running campaigns, and it happened in 120 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: your state of Pennsylvania, John Fetterman, for the most part, 121 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: hid the entire campaign. He had a debate after close 122 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: to a million votes had already been cast. In Pennsylvania. 123 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: The same thing with Joe Biden in twenty twenty, Katie 124 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: Hobbs never even debated one time. Her opponent, carry Lake. 125 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: Fetterman debated very late in the game, with all the 126 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: assistance that could be provided, and by that point it 127 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: was too late. And then you have this other issue, 128 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: which I think goes to the heart of integrity of elections. 129 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: Your state constitution gives very limited examples of how people 130 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: can vote by mail and what the circumstances need to be. 131 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: The legislature of Pennsylvania decided to rather than follow the 132 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: arduous process of amending the constitution, they passed legislation circumventing 133 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: the constitution. What was your take on that and the 134 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: other thing? You know, I'll ask you a follow up 135 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: question on this. Well, I think you're absolutely right. I mean, 136 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: we we as conservatives, I think, have to have great 137 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: ideas and we have to have great leaders who can 138 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: win primaries and win general elections, and so I think 139 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: that's the key. But in Pennsylvania in particular, but also 140 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: across the country the mail and ballot. You can't win 141 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: elections if you start on election day with you know, 142 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: five hundred thousand or a million ballots already in favor 143 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: of the Democratic candidates. So as as Republicans, we got 144 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: to deal with that. And you're right. Act seventy seven 145 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: was passed in Pennsylvania, and Republicans have to embrace the 146 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: fact that to win elections are going to have to 147 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: register more voters and win absentee ballots and and get 148 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,599 Speaker 1: our get our Republican voters comfortable with the fact that 149 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: they can vote abs andtee and still have their vote counted. 150 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 1: They don't have their reluctance and resistance in Florida. And 151 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: look at the blowout in the last election for Republicans 152 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: down in Florida. UT you're right, voting early, voting by mail, 153 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: there is reluctance and resistance. And then of course we 154 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: have this other issue. Most states allow legal ballot harvesting, 155 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: and Democrats they run negative ads and they ballot harvest. 156 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: But they don't kiss babies, take selfie, shake hands, do 157 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: town halls or pressI belles. They just ballot harvest and 158 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: run negative ads and so far it seems to be 159 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: working for them. Yeah, we listen, we can't govern I mean, 160 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: the countries in the terrible spot as you as you agree, 161 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: I think you agree, and we need we need to 162 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: win elections with the right agenda to take the country forward. 163 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: You had the morning in America, and I'm not saying 164 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: the agenda that Ronald Reagan had in nineteen eighty or 165 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty three is the right agenda for today. Our 166 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: problems are somewhat different. But that kind of leadership that 167 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: calls balls and strikes on the opposition as he did, 168 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: but then lays a pathway forward and unites our party. 169 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: In Pennsylvania, we've got conservatives the spectrum, but we agree 170 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: on eighty percent of where the country needs to go 171 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: and where Pennsylvanias ago. But we spend a lot of 172 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: time in the twenty percent we disagree with. And we're 173 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: going to need to bring our party together in Pennsylvania 174 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: to win in a purple state, to win the election 175 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four for the president, but also for 176 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: other state balance. You say decline is not inevitable, you 177 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: say we've been here before, and then you talk about 178 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: the American way of renewal. To me, it all is 179 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: dependent on who gets elected, because if Democrats are in power, 180 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: they will continue the status quo. I don't think. I 181 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: don't see them changing. I don't see them adapting. I agree, 182 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: I agree, we listen. We need to educate our people, 183 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: we need to confront China, we need to secure America, 184 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: and that agenda is straightforward. There's a lot to do, 185 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: but we know what to do as conservatives, but we 186 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: got to be in the driver's seat to do it. 187 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: And the issues that I lay out the agendaly out 188 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: of the book is not an agenda that will take 189 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: place with Republicans in the White with Democrats rather in 190 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: the White House or in the majority in the Senate, 191 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: in the House. And so we got to win elections, 192 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: and I think part of it, you know, spend a 193 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: lot of time in Pennsylvania on the campaign tre people 194 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: won answers to the problems. They want to know how 195 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: you're going to fix inflation or the futanel crisis, or 196 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: the fact that China is on the rise is posing 197 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: a real threat. I think if we have good answers 198 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: to those questions and good strong leaders, we're gonna win elections. 199 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: That we're gonna take the country back. All right, quick 200 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: breakmore with Dave mccormicks Superpower in Peril, talking about our country, 201 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: A Battle Plan to Renew America. It's on Amazon dot com, 202 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com, bookstores everywhere. Your calls after the bottom 203 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: of our news eight hundred nine four one, Shawn our number. 204 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: As we continue, all right, Dave McCormick is with us 205 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: new book out, Superpower in Peril, A Battle Plan to 206 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: Renew America, Amazon dot com, Hannity dot com, bookstores everywhere. 207 00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: Let's talk about China, Russia, Iran, North Korea because there 208 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: seems to be an emerging alliance there and that frightens me, 209 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: and the comments of President She concerned me. Their territorial 210 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: ambitions have been on full display as they fly over 211 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: Taiwan airspace on a regular basis. You know, President she 212 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: support of Putin couldn't be anymore clear. He's even sending 213 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: weapons over to Russia. So does America now have to 214 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: worry about the world being reconfigured. I would not have 215 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: thought that the Saudis would align with Iran because they were, 216 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: you know, brutal enemies for so long. But China apparently 217 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: brokered that deal. Yeah, I mean, politics hates a vacuum, 218 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: and what you've seen under President Biden over the last 219 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: two years is a huge leadership vacuum. It started with 220 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: the terrible, disgraceful withdrawal from Afghanistan that was honestly the 221 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: catalyst for me jumping into the Senate race. It continued 222 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: with the nord Stream two and the mixed Signals a putin, 223 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: which encouraged his aggression into Ukraine. It continues with the 224 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 1: hand handed approach to the Chinese surveillance balloon. And if 225 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: you're an ally, watch, if you're a potential adversary, end 226 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: to be watching, you're a licking your lips because you 227 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: see weakness, and that weakness is being followed up on 228 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: by China, which is a techno authoritarian country with a 229 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 1: huge ambition under Sheh to displace America as the superpower. 230 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: And that's one of the reasons our superpower in peril 231 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: is in peril. The partnership with Russia, I think is 232 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: a very bad sign for growing risk of what's happening 233 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 1: in Ukraine. But the partnership with Saudi Arabia and Iran, 234 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: it's the direct consequence of very mixed signals to the Saudis. 235 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: So if you're sitting where the Saudis are and you've 236 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: had this thirty year unbelievably close. I mean, I was 237 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia as a soldier to defend the oil 238 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: fields from Iraq. If you now see that partnership being 239 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: questioned by Joe Biden and not sure that the Americans 240 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: are going to be there for you, you turn to 241 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: China and then you open up the possibility of Iran 242 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: because you say to yourself, listen, I can no longer 243 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: count on American strength, American leadership. And that's what happens 244 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: when you're a vacuum. And that's why we need to 245 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: have a new leader, Republican conservative leader in the White House. 246 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: In twenty four and then then the process, Saudi Arabia's 247 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: biggest oil company had the biggest year ever. I think 248 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: it was one hundred and sixty some odd billion dollars 249 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: in profit because America took itself out of the energy 250 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: independence business and now even imports energy from Venezuela. That 251 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: makes sense, right, I mean, are you kidney that one decision? 252 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: So just to put a perspective, Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania is a 253 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: country would be the fourth largest natural gas reserved in 254 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: the world. It's huge. We just can't get it out 255 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: of the ground because of all the pipeline restrictions and 256 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: everything else. And so in one el swoop, President Biden 257 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: hurt our economy in Pennsylvania and across the country. He 258 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: hurt our national security because we were no longer energy exporters, 259 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: although under President Trump we were. Under Biden we went 260 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: back to being importers. But here's the crazy thing, Sean. 261 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: We hurt the environment because natural gas is much cleaner 262 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,359 Speaker 1: than other sources of carbon, and we started to import 263 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: oil from Venezuela and Iran because we couldn't export and 264 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: get out of the ground our natural gas of Pennsylvania. 265 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: It's one of those things where it's so stupid you 266 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: can't believe that it's a policy that was pursued, but 267 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: it was, and ultimately it made America weaker. It was stupid, 268 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: and I'll say that anyway. The book is a great roadmap. 269 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: We're more optimistic and a better future and hopefully getting 270 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: back to mourning in America again. Superpower in Peril, a 271 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: Battle Plan to Renew America. Dave McCormick I don't know 272 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: why you would ever leave making money to get into 273 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: this hell hall world called politics, But you know, I 274 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: guess we need good people to sacrifice. Ask me the 275 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: same question, man, My wife's asked me the same question. 276 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: She's asking the right question.

Because hear 320 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: us us folks down down here in the middle of 321 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 1: the lower class. I couldn't help but to think, mister Hannity, 322 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: we don't we don't. We don't have no no bunkers 323 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: to run into. Um, we don't have the privileges that 324 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: some of the elites would have if By the way, 325 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: I don't have a bunker either, so you can you 326 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: can put me in the same category. I don't have 327 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: a bunker. Well, that would change my perspective. And because 328 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you it's it's frightening for all of us. 329 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: What do you what do you think I have a 330 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: radiological and you know, anti radiation unker buried deep beneath 331 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: my home or something. What are you're thinking about? Oh, well, 332 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 1: you're a pretty successful a gentleman. I would suspect that 333 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: you would have something, right. I mean, that's not I'm 334 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: not lying. I've said it before. I'm like a mini prepper. 335 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: I've got you know, food for a couple of months. 336 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: I've got uh, you know, plenty of water for a 337 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: long period of time. UM. I obviously believe in the 338 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: Second Amendment. I'll defend myself. God forbid if I ever 339 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: have to. I don't ever want to. UM. But the 340 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: bottom line is what I was. I want you to 341 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: understand what I was saying here. If somebody like Vladimir 342 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: Putin a hostile actor, I think you would agree, hostile 343 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: regime Russia. We see their territorial ambitions, we see indiscriminate, 344 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: you know, evil in our time, bombing out of apartment buildings, 345 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: entire neighborhoods, all the infrastructure in Ukraine. The country's been 346 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: half destroyed at this point. And you know, and if 347 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 1: he says, well, I'll use a nuke, I mean we 348 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,239 Speaker 1: can't just say, oh, he's gonna use a nuke, let 349 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: him have Ukraine. UM, let him let him have uh 350 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: poland let him have Yeah. I mean, when does it 351 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: end you cannot let the fear or of a dictator 352 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: cause you not to fight back. I well, we probably 353 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: should have fought back when we let this guy get 354 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 1: into the White House. Right, Let's put the roles in reverse. 355 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: Let's say if it was Mexico that was laundering money 356 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: for Russia and they were south of our border, and um, 357 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: they were bringing onto eastern ways to the to US westerns, 358 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: and it was something as Putin said and his address 359 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: to the people, they're asking, uh, you know, gay marriages 360 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: from their pastors. They're they're pushing child pornography. I'm not 361 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: for I'm not for pouting at all, but could you 362 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: actually blame the guy for not wanting that that kind 363 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: of thing around his country? Not wanting one thing for 364 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about the drone that he took 365 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 1: out of the sky over international waters. Well, we have 366 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: international you know, airspace, we have international waters, and America 367 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: is free just like any other country to fly in 368 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: those areas, to be in those areas. So all of 369 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: a sudden putin comes along another active hostility, and even 370 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: our own defense secretary admitted that he's ratcheting up his 371 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: hostility towards the US. You saw what happened with China 372 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 1: in the balloon. You saw what happened with Russia taking 373 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: out the drone, and then they're trying to recover our 374 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: drone that they took out of the sky. That is 375 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: am I going to go as far as to say 376 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: it's an active war, all right, I'll pull back. I'll 377 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: just say it is a hostile act against our country 378 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: that needs a strong, appropriate response. I think that we 379 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: lost that moral high alb when we let this administration 380 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 1: go into the wire house, un check. That's just my opinion. Well, 381 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: I mean, we still have a country, and the United 382 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: States as a country, and our military needs to protect 383 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: our interests, and it is in our interests not to 384 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: let China, to let China or Russia bully us out 385 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: of international waters or international airspace. They owe that to 386 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: this country. We are a sovereign nation. They have no 387 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: right to do what they did in both cases. And 388 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: yet there's been no response. There has been none whatsoever. 389 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: And I don't think there's anything coming. And I think 390 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: that this was a These were tests, and Joe Biden 391 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: failed miserably. Oh, they got him dead center, Sean, they 392 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: got him dead center. They know that he's a week. 393 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: They know that he is a weird pervert weekling. Well, 394 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: but I do think a lot of people. You know, 395 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: there was some talk at one point that he said 396 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: he'd used tactical nuclear weapons. Were certainly implied it. Okay, 397 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: So if that's what he's if that's what his plan is, 398 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: we're just gonna say, we're not going to be intimidated 399 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: by your words. There will be a forceful response if 400 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,959 Speaker 1: you precipitate this. It's not in the world's best interest 401 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: for anybody to ever use a nuclear weapon. I never 402 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 1: want that to ever happen. The loss of human life 403 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: will be incalculable. We don't need it, we don't want it. However, 404 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: we're not going to be shut down because of their threat. 405 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: That's why, you know, the principle of mutually assured destruction exists. 406 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: You fire those weapons, we're firing right back at you. 407 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: You should you shoot down our drones. We're gonna shoot 408 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: down two of yours. Got to send a message. The 409 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: only thing. Let me ask you when you When I 410 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: was a kid, we used to fight a lot. Every 411 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: time we played sports. Every day we'd fight. Do you 412 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: have a deal with a bully in your life? Yes, 413 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: a lot. Okay, do you ever did you ever just 414 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: hit a bully hard? Hard? I got to the points 415 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: where I didn't take it no more. Okay, And then 416 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: after you hit the bully, what happened he stopped? Yeah? Right, 417 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: he does, he does it. It's to me it's the 418 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 1: same principle issue. Yeah, all right. I don't think we 419 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: disagree as much as you think. But I appreciate your call, buddy, 420 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: Thank you for being out there. Um And no, I 421 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: don't have an underground punker giving away my security secrets here. 422 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to protects against radiation eight hundred nine 423 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: four one, Sean. If you want to be a part 424 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: of the program, let's say, hi A two John is 425 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: in Chicago. John, how are you glad you called? I'm 426 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: doing well, Sean former Homo comment on Beetles juice. Here 427 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: in Chicago, we are all happy. We're sending her packing 428 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: bye bye. Yes, I wanted to touch base. I think 429 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: a lot of this is just managing the narrative with 430 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: Trump there, and if we recall, the first impeachment was 431 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: about the League phone call with the Ukraine and Zelenski 432 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 1: and there, so I think a lot of this is 433 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: going on. We've been pushing Russia. You had your generals 434 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: in ninety nine. Safe we put NATO to the western 435 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: border of Russia, we'd have war. You had the CIA 436 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: even sent notes to Kanda, Lisa Rice and three days 437 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: before the war with Russia, Russia demanded that last year 438 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: that Biden publicly come out and say that we would 439 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: not push NATO. Ford Biden refusing to negotiate, and the 440 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 1: war started there. So there's a lot of stuff going on. 441 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: You got the Color Revolution with Obama overthrowing Zelenski in 442 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. Zelenski was tied up with the Pandora papers 443 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: where he had all these offshore tax illegal tax accounts 444 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: that came out after the Panama papers too, So I 445 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: think this all ties in. And the DD even released effects. 446 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: We had forty six file laps in Ukraine's There's there's 447 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff going on here. I think this 448 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 1: is all just uh listen. I would put a pause 449 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: on every penny that the US even has committed to 450 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: Ukraine unlesson until Europe steps up and pays their fair share, 451 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: and until Joe Biden takes off the handcuffs and allows 452 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: allows Ukraine to accept fighter jets from Poland and elsewhere. 453 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: Now they've they've accepted four. That was an improvement last week, 454 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: but they offered thirty. And unless and until they're willing 455 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: to show that they're in it to win it, and 456 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: Europe is willing to take on the greater part of 457 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: that burden, then it's it's a feudal attempt. It's it's 458 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: a guaranteed quagmire at best, you know, or a guaranteed 459 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: result of failure. You know, the people of Ukraine, God 460 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 1: bless them. They have shown great courage, they have shown 461 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,360 Speaker 1: great valor. They have lost you know, you know, untold 462 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 1: numbers of innocent men, women and children. Do we have 463 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: a moral obligation, Yes, but you know what, it's Europe's backyard. 464 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,159 Speaker 1: Europe's got to deal with it first. Europe's got to 465 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: contribute the vast majority of moneys. Europe has got to 466 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: provide the weaponry. Europe is not stepping up. And because 467 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 1: you know, Joe Biden's been throwing billions here, billions there, 468 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 1: billions everybody where, there's been no need for them to 469 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: step up. And that needs to change. That's the difference 470 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: between America first and America last. Anyway, appreciate the call, 471 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 1: my friend, Thank you.
